Official title
Prospective, Randomized Clinical Study Evaluating Transoral Outlet Reduction (TORe) and Lifestyle Modification for Patients With Weight Regain Following Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass
Overview
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate weight loss with TORe and intensive lifestyle modification versus intensive lifestyle modification alone in subjects who have regained weight following a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. Participants will randomized 2:1. Those randomized to the TORe arm will receive a TORe procedure and intensive lifestyle modification which consists of a well-balanced calorie restrictive diet, incorporation of exercise and coaching on lifestyle discussion. Participants randomized the lifestyle modification alone arm will be eligible to receive a TORe procedure at 6 months post enrollment. Total follow up will be 24 months.
Interventions
- Device TORe with OverStitch
Transoral Outlet Reduction with OverStitch Endoscopic Suturing System - Behavioral Intensive lifestyle modification
Intensive lifestyle modification program consists of the following: well-balanced calorie-restrictive diet, incorporation of exercise and coaching on lifestyle changes. The program should include personal discussions and goals designed and overseen by the treating physician, obesity management professional or dietician.
